Study the following Bar graph and answer the question . The Bar Graph gives the annual rates of inflation in percentages for 1975 and 1987.
Comparing the figures for USA vis-a-vis the developed nations , it can be concluded that
Inflation rate in the developed nations in 1975 = 11.8%
Inflation rate in the developed nations in 1987 = 14.2%
=> % increase = $$\frac{14.2-11.8}{11.8} \times 100$$
$$\approx 20.34\%$$
Similarly, % increase in USA = $$\frac{12.7-10.3}{10.3} \times 100$$
$$\approx 16.50\%$$
Thus, it can be concluded that USA had better control on inflation
